   Abstract : DNA contains genes which carry the blueprints for all processes necessary to maintain life. In addition to genes, DNA also contains a wide range of functional patterns, which governs many of these processes. These functional patterns have typically a high variability, both within and between species, which makes them hard to detect. READ MORE

   Abstract : Microorganisms are organised in complex communities and are ubiquitous in all ecosystems, including natural environments and inside the human gut. Metagenomics, which is the direct sequencing of DNA from a sample, enables studying the collective genomes of the organisms that are there present. READ MORE
